Vacation rentals in Tumbatu

It was the most beautiful 12 days of our lives to spend here. The villa was exactly as pictured, very kind to us and always at our disposal! The beach and shops were close by on foot, we had everything we needed nearby! There is also a taxi station at the end of the street where we found a once-in-a-lifetime friend. The mosquito net and the air conditioning helped us a lot in nearly 2 weeks. In summary, everything was perfect, if we return to Zanzibar, there is no question that we will come back at the same time! Thank you!

Villa Magnolia is as beautiful as it's name - we spent a very relaxing 4days there. The house is large and spacious, with beautifully furnished rooms and Zanzibari beds, and great aircon. It's position is perfect, right on the beach, but set back a bit so you still feel very private, and easy walking to several great restaurants and local tour operators and dive centre. The staff that live behind the house are very pleasant and helpful, keot the garden looking beautiful, yet were discreet when we didn't need them, and we loved their 2 dogs who were very well behaved. Aiasha and Shafiq were helpful with local recommendations, flexible with our check in and out, and organised a very reliable taxi to collect us and drive us there, that we ended up using for our next few transfers and for a very interesting Spice Farm tour. Highly recommended!

This is truly a one of a kind villa- perfect for long term stays as the rare feature of uninterrupted solar electricity is a luxury in Zanzibar. Arnaud is a kind stalwart host, ready to attend to the villa at anytime. Anne is superb at sweet efficient communication. They really know how to make you feel at home. The 24 hour Maasi attendant and 3 cool dogs ensure a safe stay. The villa is situated perfectly between Kendwa and Nungwi beaches, two pristine beaches which can be reached in a short walk or ride. Grocery stores are a quick walk as well. Barakana restaurant delivery has plenty of yummy menu choices. The villa is perfectly equipped with spacious rooms and ample shelving. The bathrooms are fantastic! Extra large showers with hot water and Kardashian luxury disappearing sinks- allowing space for an entire family's toiletries. The rooftop pool penthouse lounge is marvelous, offerring panoramic sunrises and sunsets and exquisite star filled nights under the African sky.

Sissy and her team are great hosts. The food was fresh and amazing. They made great efforts to help get access to shops and things to do. The help with taxi drivers was great.

2 weeks in this house was really peaceful and nice. The general manager Mudy and also Anna were very proactive. The house is situated in a very quiet environment and we could walk 15 minutes to Kendwa beach. Otherwise we took moto taxis. I really recommand this place

Simone was a lovely host! Responded super quickly. Saïd picked us up from the airport and was always ready. Mtumwa poetse wonderful! Sparkling clean. Beds were wonderfully changed every 4 days. If electricity and water failures, there was a generator. Nice! Beach in front of the door not really clean, but a short walk and you have a nice beach. In the house an info folder with all kinds of tips for trips. You can ask the helpful Saïd as a driver, or someone else. Children from the neighborhood play in front of the door on the beach. We enjoyed it! Put your chair on the beach at 5.30 pm and look at the fishing boats that come back with their catch. The house has a lovely veranda with dining table and chairs, where you can have breakfast etc. We had a lovely stay of 4 weeks and thank Simone for the good communication! Tip: bring aea for the children. They are really poor.

We loved everything about our stay at Villa Funga. The house was everything the pictures had promised; spacious, cool decor, fantastic pool (the water was actually cooling), attentive staff - and beautifully located on the beach. Plenty of nice restaurants at resorts nearby, especially if you love seafood. Local groceries can be found at the local marked a short walk from the house. All in all just a wonderful place!

Tatyana and the husband they are very helpful host I recommend everyone to come and stay at Tatyana’s place

We had a wonderful time at AFYA Village. The garden feels like you are in paradise, the view is fantastic and the food & breakfast where just delicious. Ali is a great cook and his team is super friendly and nice. Highly recomendable. Thank you!!
